Storing parts increases. work in process and results in âbatchâ. processing, which subsequently defeats. the purpose of lean manufacturing. In. addition, smaller, minimal size worksta-. tions and machines eliminate unneces-. sary steps taken by the worker between.
Hot season strategies How much water do cows need in hot weather? Allow for 200 - 250 litres per cow per day in hot weather - double what cows usually need each day. Make sure cows have access to plenty of cool drinking water wherever they are during the day. A big water trough on the exit side of the dairy is a must. Provide a minimum of 0.75m water trough space per cow at your feed-out facility. Water pipes should be 75mm in diameter, with suddicient pressure to provide 20 litres per cow per hour, so that troughs cope with periods of peak demand.
The total amount of fresh water used for sanitation and manure removal averaged 39.6 gallons per cow per day. The mean value for each farm ranged from 12.3 to 69.2 gallons per cow per day. The water used for cattle drinking water troughs on seven of the dairies studied averaged 28.7Â±12.0 gallons per cow per day. Thus the Texas data average fresh water use per cow per day for sanitation and drinking was 68.3 gallons.
